Helldivers 2 is and has at all times been one large parody of itself narrative smart, with Arrowhead enjoying into the absurdity that comes with all of its Starship Troopers-esque declarations of patriotic fervour. The sport’s group has purchased into this in fairly hilarious roleplaying fashion loads of instances, however its newest occasion is perhaps probably the most sudden but.
To start with, you’ve little doubt heard about the entire backlash that’s been happening to a few of the the Escalation of Freedom replace’s balancing modifications, which Arrowhead’s now issued a complete plan in response to. Nicely, that snowballed into an in-game protest from pissed off gamers trying to let the Automatons attain Tremendous Earth within the sport’s galactic battle, and mentioned protest’s now taken on a complete lifetime of its personal.
If you happen to head to the Helldivers 2 subreddit immediately, you’ll probably see a bunch of posts mentioning a gaggle often known as the “Chaosdivers”, with this seemingly being the title gamers have give you for the motion amongst them which desires to see Tremendous Earth fall, having misplaced religion within the authentic Helldivers’ trigger.
Significantly, there are memes that includes in-character propaganda each for and towards this new motion in an identical fashion to plenty of these Malevelon Creek posts from earlier this yr – somebody’s even gone forward and designed an idea for an in-game Chaosdivers, that includes a brand the group appears to have settled on.
“Your eyes have been opened. You rejected your private home and bathed in blood off your brothers to achieve freedom. Your actions may have penalties. Youngsters of the Tremendous Earth will burn with flames of your fury. And you’ll remorse nothing,” reads this cape’s description. Edgy stuff.
There does appear to be a little bit of confusion as as to whether of us who depend themselves among the many Chaosdivers are their very own separate faction, or have primarily joined forces with the Automatons they’ve been trying to assist to seize Tremendous Earth by refusing to combat again, however hey, issues often aren’t black and white.
There’s even been some chatter as as to whether Arrowhead ought to add the Chaosdivers into the sport as an actual faction of some type, with the vast majority of gamers in favour seemingly like they’d be up for this assuming the group was only a human enemy faction, moderately than a means so as to add PvP into the sport by letting of us select to affix the group.
